Today’s card features the new Citrus Blooms Bundle and Mediterranean Blossoms Designer Series Paper. We all occassionally need one of those cards that is not a holiday or birthday but instead just something to let someone know we are thinking about them and are checking in. I saw this card on Page 34 of the new Annual Catalog and I immediately knew I wanted to recreate it, so that’s what I did.
Here is what I came up
with…
The card base is Boho Blue cardstock cut
to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”. I then
used this cute background stamp from the Citrus Blossoms Bundle to stamp all
over the front of the card base using Boho Blue Ink creating my own
background. Next, I used the three dies
from the bundle that work together to cut out the leaf patterns, I cut these
all at the same time from a piece of Basic White cardstock that measured 4 x 5 ¼”. I took the center leaf bundle out and using
the largest of my Water Painters I added a wash of Garden Green Ink (note: more
is less so go light and you can add more as needed). I mounted those pieces all onto the center front
of the card base. Once that was done, I
took a piece of Linen Thread that measured 31” and wrapped it around the center
of the card front twice and tied it into a bow over on the left side.
I then added a strip of the Mediterranean
Blossoms Designer Series Paper that measured 7/8 x 3 ½” across the center of
the card. I used the flower dies from
the bundle and die cut 6 flowers in different sizes and added them to my card
front. Finally, I die cut the 2nd
Smallest of the Stylish Shapes Dies Circles and stamped the sentiment “hello”
from the bundle near the top using Night of Navy Ink. I took a piece of Lemon Lolly cardstock that
measured ½ x 2 3/8” and stamped the sentiment “JUST CHECKING IN” which is also
from the bundle onto it again using the Night of Navy Ink. I added the Lemon Lolly strip to the center
bottom of my circle and then popped that whole thing up on my card using
Dimensionals.
